Inside Liu Village, a faint heat wave grazed the faces of its inhabitants.
It was the height of summer, the hottest time of the year, when everything flourished and the greenery thickened.
In the pitch-black night, cicadas sang unapologetically, proclaiming their triumphant summer.
By the time Jiang Hui returned to Liu Village, it was a quarter past midnight. Retracting his External Avatar, he returned to his original body. Although the maneuverability of the External Avatar was superior, granting him more freedom of movement, it was as his original self that Jiang Hui was at his most potent.
In his Avatar, he could demonstrate a hundred percent of his might, but in his original form, he could manifest two hundred, even three hundred percent, of his attack power.
The moment his External Avatar was withdrawn, Little True Dragon nestled into a cozy spot within the dense canopy of Jiang Hui’s crown, with a snapping sound of his jaws.
By chance or design, he situated himself not far from theThree-eyed Crowand the little swarm of bees.
Upon the sudden emergence of the Little True Dragon, the two Three-eyed Ravens gasped as if they had stumbled upon something unbelievable. They let out a shriek, their wings fluttered rapidly, shaking loose a mass of black feathers. They appeared somewhat terrified…
As for the swarm of bees, they were so frightened that they quickly retreated into their hive, hardly daring to move, even retracting their stingers.
Inside the hive, a multitude of Soldier Bees gathered around the rotund Bee Queen within a split second, positioning her at their center. They were prepared to defend their queen with their lives.
The Little True Dragon raised his head high, appearing quite humanoid as he darted disapproving glance at the Three-eyed Crow.
Granted, the bloodline of the Three-eyed Raven was exceptional, being a rare Pure Blood creature. However, when compared to the Ten Evils, it evidently fell short.
Though the current strength of the Little True Dragon couldn’t surpass that of the Three-eyed Raven, his bloodline was superior, suppressing all else.
As for the bee, the Little True Dragon did not even spare it a glance.
Even a Pure Blood creature was unworthy of his attention.
Seizing this moment, Jiang Hui looked at Little True Dragon and cast a Surveillance Technique.
Believer: True Dragon (Requires True Name)
Bloodline: Leader of the Ten Evils
Evaluation: The True Dragon represents the pinnacle of all races. Unlike the other Nine Evils with inherent flaws, once the True Dragon matures, it can directly enter the Realm of the Fairy King, standing among the strongest of them all.
This is one of the few races in the world that is extraordinary by birth, possessing unimaginable potential. Please cultivate it diligently, and you will see incredible results and rewards.
The information provided by the Surveillance Technique aligns almost perfectly with his guesses.
The True Dragon is outstanding. If properly cultivated, it could definitely become the village guardian deity of Liu Village in the future.
“What a beautiful night!” Taking in the “harmonious coexistence” happening in the canopy above him, Jiang Hui smiled contentedly.
“Caw! Caw!”
“Caw! Caw!”
The two Three-eyed Crows, both male and female, were still flapping their wings and cawing. They were practically on the verge of losing their voices.
However, having realised that the True Dragon didn’t consider them a threat, the couple relaxed and quickly scurried back to their nests to continue their ‘ deep slumber.
The night passed without incidents, and dawn arrived.
Located in a valley, several tens of miles from Liu Village.
The forest was silent, with ancient trees growing straight out of the ground. Sunlight filtered down through the trees, shimmering like stars in the sky. It felt like the afternoon sun.
The air was filled with melodious bird songs, carrying the delicious fragrance of nature which floated into the distance.
This path was the only way to Liu Village, the other three directions were all blocked off by towering canyons, impassable to all.
At that moment, the silence of the dense forest was broken by the rustling sound of movement.
The very next moment.
Several figures emerged from the forest.
A total of four people.
Three teenagers, and one middle-aged man.
These figures had already traveled a great distance, their bodies covered in dust and roughness as evidence of their journey. Their clothing, tom in places by the thorns on their path, revealed dried scabs and wounds. They looked utterly forlorn.
The middle-aged man leading them held a broadsword, using it to protect the three youths behind him.
On the wide hilt of the sword were remnants of dried blood, apparently the result of numerous battles along their trek. The blood had stained even the handle of the sword, leaving its trace.
Seeing no immediate danger around, the man’s expression noticeably relaxed.
He stepped forward, gazing up at the brilliant glow in the sky above.
That was a parchment, but upon it were inscribed divine whispers, which were the Divine Decree, emitting the will of the Divine Spirit.
“We’re almost there!”
The middle-aged man murmured to himself, his eyes brimming with a hint of moisture.
They had traversed countless mountains and peaks, walked on for endless distant miles, their feet chafed raw. They were ready to meet their destiny, on the brink of reaching the light bestowed by the Divine Decree.
“Xian Er, no matter how arduous this life, I will find a way to resurrect you!”
The man took a deep breath.
He didn’t care if he could obtain the ability to reach the Great Taoist from the deity.
He only wished to capture the attention of that higher being with his sincerity and find a way to bring the woman, the basis of his existence, back to life.
He knew life and death were inevitable, and once a person dies, it’s nearly impossible for them to be resurrected, even by divine spirits. But he couldn’t let go, and even if he gained nothing in the end, he was prepared to accept it.
Like a moth to a flame, he was ready to perish with no regrets.
“I don’t know if it’s just us, but suddenly, the air here feels lighter to breathe.”
The youths came over, each opening their mouths wide, trying to inhale as much of the surrounding air as possible.
“We are already on the Land Blessed by the Gods, naturally, there will be various anomalies. We should seize the good weather today and hasten our journey, strive to reach Liu Village as soon as possible and bask in the divinity!” The middle-aged man smiled faintly, patting the shoulders of the youths beside him, as he strode off towards a certain direction.
Through the rugged mountain path, their shapes cast long shadows under the sunrise, which gradually stretched out into the depth of the grassland.
“To think that they would arrive so soon!”
On top of the mountain range, Jiang Hui utilized his Surveillance Technique to its fullest extent, covering thousands of miles around him.
Within this range, every rustle of vegetation was in plain sight.
Naturally, the man with the broadsword and the boys were immediately noticed by him.
Jiang Hui was somewhat amazed. There were no local villages or tribes around. Judging by the state of these people, they must have traversed mountains and waters from a very far-off place.
The fact that they could arrive in just a few dozen days was proof of their sincere intentions.
Since they were already on their way, there was no reason for Jiang Hui not to welcome them.
He immediately contacted Old man Lin.
Actually, there was no need to line as Old man Lin had already opened the gate to Liu Village simultaneously when Jiang Hui had set down the divine decree.
Just before sunset.
The man with the broadsword and the boys finally arrived, slightly delayed leisure they had to deal with a ferocious beast on their way.
“Is this Liu Village?”
Due to the forethought of Jiang Hui in disabling the Utopia Array ahead of time, the people had a direct view of a corner of Liu Village.
Ahead of them, smoke rose in trails from chimneys, the paths intersected, and the sound of chickens and dogs echoed in the distance. It was quiet and serene, like a picture of the countryside painted with a brush dipped in mountains and rivers.
Everything was so beautiful that it was hard to blink away.
In addition.
They didn’t know if it was just an illusion, but since stepping foot here, the man with the broadsword and the others felt their fatigue lighten considerably.
